i use to find a gust just entering the park. and put a tracker on them. and follow which rides they went on and everything they did

LonelyAssassin96 and when you could make them throw up and fling them around ❤😍

LonelyAssassin96 - YES! 😄😄😄

You could rename them too. :)

😂 I never knew this!

I have to agree with that. I believe RCT1 eases you more into its intricate system while RCT2 is the most complete once you know your stuff. I like them more than RCT3. With Planet Coaster and Parkitect releasing next to ach other, I gotta give faith to the Parkitect devs that seem to value rct1&2 more so tan RCT3

I got RCT2 in a cereal box. I'm a big fan of RCT3, but it feels like that game will age the fastest, especially the graphics. RCT2 has a certain design that makes it very easy to play and look at years later. Other than the water based stuff which were kind of wonky in 2 and 3, RCT2 is just incredibly complete as a game. The park/business management aspect of 2 is also better than 3. The only main issue I have with 2 is the pathfinding of mechanics.

Lazy Game Reviews I agree. I still go back to play RCT2 often, but don't go back to 3. I find the game play so charming and simple. The pixel art and fun sound design have aged so well.

The second game feels timeless honestly. The options were greatly improved upon and everything became not only a lot more accessible but a lot more feasible. The only negative I have for the second game (which is actually a rather large negative) is the inability to speed up time. Thankfully now that OpenRCT2 exists we can do such a thing so there's really nothing bad to say about the game if you play it via that method now. It also has the ability to use much larger scales in land/water/scenery placement which makes the more irritating segments of gameplay a lot less irritating. I'd love to see you cover that port some day LGR, think you might?

hahaha i just posted a comment about loving the 2 the best prior to seeing this comment. the game provided challenges that truly took work and gave the player a sense of true accomplishment. it's customization of landscape, pathways, and rides doubled from RCT1. lastly, you can pop balloons, drown patrons, and see a fiery, fatal explosion on rides even if it was something as simple as a water slide. so great. i wish i could get it on my mac!

And you forgot to stick around to the very end of the video ;)

+Lazy Game Reviews whoops didn't notice that! :)

+Rebecca Moffatt haha glad to see I wasn't the only one

+Gryffindor44 It wasn't on PS2, you must be thinking of Xbox.

Gryffindor44 huh, weird. Are you 100% sure it was RCT and not something like thrillville?

Oscar Scheepstra Great story dude. I hope that playing the game will continue to bring you all of those memories about him.

+Oscar Scheepstra ;-;

Did he die on a rollercoaster

may your brother Rest In Peace

Eating shoarma after a concert is a must or a patatje oorlog.

'Limitations of the Game Engine', there isn't a game engine, it's your processor

The core engine runs in x86 Assembly, the only parts that run in other languages are the version dependencies, for example the Windows version of Rollercoaster Tycoon is 99% Assembly, with the rest of the code being in C to make the Window panel and to hook into DirectX Some other fun facts about the game - Using some of the profit he made off of Transport Tycoon Chris Sawyer actually went and rode 600 different Rollercoasters and got design input from industry leaders in rollercoaster architecture to get a better understanding off how the game should function.

And the actor of Aragorn _really_ broke his toe in that one scene

fux yews That is diabolically genius.

fux yews I'm gonna do that except hide them in buildings, so my Realistic Park Meter doesn't go haywire and I can make serious bank.

Srsly amazing

WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN!!!

If that happened to me I'd probably just take a shit next to the restroom's wall

Leopoldo Aranha ah RCT, the gane where you can be mr krabs

I'd buy the burger to take a shit in

You're asking for people to be taking a dump wherever they want.

I'd buy them, take them home, and eat them there :3

ns9559 yep I found my old game I lost most of them but I've still got one from 2010 I think it was or it might of been 2009 and I can't stop playing it I love that game 😍

i am cleaning out my house to move and i found a huge box full of all my old pc games from the early 2k's , I reinstalled rct2 and figured i would waste some time from my priorities to play, i started playing at 9 am or so, Im pretty intuitive at guessing time without looking at the clock, so im playing and i guess the time as being 11 or 12 ish because it didn't feel like i was playing that long, i look at the clock and its fucking 430pm my whole day wasted. i couldn't believe it i have not sat don and played a game for that long in years

ns9559 absolutely! I'll go months without touching it then play it every day for weeks. I've completed this game at least 5 times in the past 15 years.

i probably killed my family's old Windows 2000 laptop from playing this and Civilization III on an endless loop for years

ns9559 - Exactly. 👍

I'm scared to let my little brother to to Disney World now... stupid little crybaby. Edit: Maybe he actually deserves it.

If you hold onto them with the tweezers for a long enough time they get angrier and angrier too

Man...those days were the best.

I got mine the same way, both RCT and RCT 2 from Post cereals.

I think I did, too. The best decision I ever forced my mum to make.

Burger King's kids meals had games like these too.

I got corkscrew follies from a cereal box

It will hit hard as long as there are computers and electricity

Some maps don't require money.

Asher Pinson good question, I don't recall come to think of it, very similar ha

There were four parks in the Loopy Landscapes expansion that had no money; Arid Heights, an icy forest, an alien lake, and a populated Mega Park. I probably spend more time in Arid Heights than any other scenario.

Heresy

TrapBum YES! Time flew by while playing this game. I used to spend full days playing it haha!

And multiplayer!

Wow someone in this comments section that likes RCT3. That's great! Nice to see someone who likes it here

@@childalpha6954 i like too, even tho PlanetCoaster is E.X.C.E.L.L.E.N.T

Planet Zoo is coming!

The Gold Tycoon Series

Thank you!

I remember that one. Such an awesome game.

By far my favorite park. I started on vanilla rct1 for a couple years before getting deluxe. And I was amazed at the fact that arid heights had unlimited money. By far my favorite map to play on. It got to a point where I stopped progressing through the scenarios and just played arid heights for months straight

Yes. Later on in Loopy Landscapes, you also get Megaworld Park, which can make for a good sandbox once you've completed its objective.

"Funtopia" is the name of it. You get a million dollars and the scenario goal "Have fun!"

That's why I prefer RCT3, and you can create your own sandbox

@@childalpha6954 You can do that in 2 as well, by just making your own scenario.

Specifically, you unlock Mega Park after you clear the game's original 21 scenarios. I believe that was done to ensure you wouldn't get access to such a big, empty park until you were completely comfortable with the game.

This is why so many "gaming shows" have fallen out of fashion. Independent channels create far better quality/far more in depth/far less artificially promoted gaming videos for a fraction of the cost

no way :o

Same here, even tried to put in mods for RCT2 at one point xD

Older sister or Younger sister?

Shinx Plays Older

@@actuaiiyyou Oh... Perhaps maybe you can play together again sometime! 😄

Probably because it's a 2D game, 2D games aged very well imo, more if it's mid 90s or late 90s 2D.

Thanks but it's literally impossible because I have a Mac. :(

Excaliber DG11 Haha no I don't want to kill myself

+Lauren Hannah A Mac? my condolences.

+Lauren Hannah there is a free program called winebottler that enables you to run windows applications, it might work.

+Lauren Hannah For the adventurous, you can run Windows on your Mac directly via boot camp or in a virtual machine via something like vmware

it has a sad theme song though

Yes I agree. 2 was always my favorite.

I love the scenarios of 1, and the improved mechanics and options in 2. I wish you could import the scenarios from the first one with some extra stuff from 2.

B5429671 XJ the IOS “RCT Classic” puts both 1 and 2 together into one app. It really is an amazing app, you should check it out if you haven’t alread

@@og3171995 I got it on Android and I didn't really like the changes because this is a classic. I'll download it on my new Chromebook, though.

That one is basically rct1 with some elements from rct2

I put some epic music, press alt+ tab, ctrl alt del, alt f4 and close process

me too. It took a long time before I could find the original in a magazine that came with CD-rom back then. The full games for the price of the magazine!

If I remember right, cause it was a long, long time ago, but I used to just go into the game files and lopen the mega park file to play sandbox. I never even beat the first 5 levels.

omgwtfbbqxD it is quite possible that strategy works

Man, I need to make it a goal to beat this game. I couldn't complete some of the later scenarios even after re-visiting this as an adult a number of years ago, lol

It's not causing high intensity level, but high nausea level

On the contrary, it's that the second one looks almost exactly like the first! Both use the same basic engine.

RCT2 should be treated as a glorified Expansion Pack to 1. A very good one in fact, since it includes EVERYTHING from 1 (minus the RCT1 scenarios, but they've been remade by fans for RCT2 and can be downloaded), but on top of that adds quite a bit. RCT3 is quite different from RCT1 and 2, both with good (you can ride your coasters, 3D and the landscaping included in it, customizable scenery, etc) and bad points (can't kill guests, long load times, buggy engine). I think both are worth having though: RCT2 for the scenarios (download RCT1 scenarios with it), and RCT3 for sandbox.

The thing with RCT2 for me is, that you have so much stuff there right at the beginning. I am not as happy if i get new stuff because i already have anything i need to build a big park. I still think it is an Awsome game but the scenarios in RCT1 have a much better Gamedesign

RCT without any expansions is actually pretty different than RCT2. The expansions really add a lot that make it more like 2, with music, more options for queue lines, path signs, etc. I personally like to play RCT without any expansions just because when you add them to the game, it's essentially RCT2 without some of the rides and parks.

Most of the changes are in the technical section, like larger maps, more rides, etc Some rides has been changed even, for better or worse.

Well of course, you cut salary costs and that guest was probably the next Hitler or something.

Since 2006!

@@LGR you should try Open Roller coaster tycoon 2! It has multiplayer and bug fixes

I totally plan on it!

Lazy Game Reviews GOG definitely needs to release them because I'd buy dat shiz without a second thought! XD
